3 points, A clean sheet & we leapfrogged them so that mission accomplished & we have took 10 out of 15 pts , Let’s keep this sort of return going.

Different tactics today was a good call & suited the conditions.

In reply to the quote above.

Wonder if it’s a mental toughness thing?

When we concede & bizarrely when the oppo have a red card we collapse mentally, If we take a lead we slowly but surely sit deeper & deeper then the inevitable happens.

We know these lads can play & we usually start off okay & compete until adversity hits.

Hope Jolly can mentor this side of things into them & coach them better than Dunn & bring in the player/s in the positions we all have been asking for.

After precautionary checks, Luke James is back from the hospital and is now on his way home! 🏠

That's really good news on the lad.
I seen him going in Tesco on Friday afternoon about 3 o'clock and asked him if the game was on.
What a well mannered decent lad he was.

I thought we did ok in the added time don't forget scunthorpe like us are desperate for points and they threw caution to the wind and went for it , the only thing we did wrong was to not keep our shape a few times 3 players went for the same man , Jolley will sort this when they go through the game, and let's not forget i can't remember Joel having to do much !

Be prepared for more of the same. The manager's taking a pragmatic approach but if it brings in the points...:
I think that is what it is going to take between now and the end of the season. It’s not always going to be beautiful possession-based football that Barrow have been known for.
Don't let the old man in.

Never watched the game but was interesting to see the comments about Quigley's decision making, I noticed on the highlights there were multiple times where he had the ball at his feet and there were teammates screaming for a pass.
Popular side since '03.

We were shite; they were worse. Much needed 3 points. Onwards.
